The Last Story

The first thing you should know about The Last Story, Mistwalker's latest RPG, is that it has an immense amount of stuff to do. If reviewing this hadn't been a priority, I'd still be running around Lazulis. Given the talent behind the development, it...

The Last Story Review: Deconstructing Fantasy Heroes

A lively cast brings one of Hironobu Sakaguchi's finest fantasies to the Wii.

20 hours seems like a ridiculously short amount of time, especially when it comes to caring about someone. Making a friend or falling in love takes much longer than that. 20 hours is nothing compared to the length of a life; yet games, at times, can...

Minor frame rate issues

Despite being set in a single city, there are still a wide variety of quests. One moment, you're fighting off hordes of enemies in Lazulis castle; the next, you're enjoying a quiet drink in Ariela's Tavern before being whisked away to explore musty...

The Last Story Review

It's been a long time coming. Does Mistwalker's latest live up to the year-long wait for a localised Western release?

The Last Story has no significant shortcomings apart from a slight lack of verve; it’s not the JRPG revolution that Xenoblade Chronicles was, and its setting and story remain within safe territory, but great characterisation and an excellent,...
